Re: Pink eye???

Is the white of the eye itself red? If not, it is probably just a plugged tear duct. Plugged tear ducts are extremely common under 6 months old, but just to be sure you can get it checked by the doctor. My daughter (now 11 months old) had many plugged tear ducts. It will clear on its own, but the doctor also showed me a technique for putting pressure down close to her tear duct on her nose and down to her tear duct to help it clear.

Many babies will have this on and off until upward of a year old. At one year if it hasn't cleared, then the doctor will look into further options for you. Hope this helps, that was my experience...
